Way Back Into Love (Essie) novel Chapter 452

At this moment, she finally understood why the old lady had invited her here on the day of offering sacrifices to the ancestors.

It was because she wanted her to stay and continue to be the granddaughter in law of the Rong family.

Today, the old lady helped fix her position in front of so many people of the Rong family. If she said that she wanted to remarry, the old lady would be humiliated and disgraced. How could she do such an unfilial thing?

If she kept silent, it would mean that she admitted that she was still the daughter-in-law of the Rong family and worshiped their ancestors. How could she marry someone else in such a hurry?

The old lady was giving her a headache.

She placed her hands under the table cloth and rubbed them anxiously. She was in a dilemma, but at last she did not say a word.

There was a smile on the corner of Alena's lips, which was not hard to notice. She knew that Essie wouldn't say anything. She was a reasonable and considerate person. She was good at telling what she thought and what she shouldn't say. And that was also one of the reasons why her husband and she valued her very much.

Mary was so angry that she clenched the tablecloth. Since they had divorced, why should she be one of the members of the Rong family? She really wanted to jump up to kick Essie out, but she dared not. If she did, she would be the next to be kicked out. She tried very hard to pull the stiff corners of her mouth to keep a hypocritical smile, so as not to let others notice her abnormality.

Zac was sitting opposite to her. His dark and gloomy eyes were fixed on her, eyeing every subtle change of her facial expression.

He kept thinking about what Essie had said. Her mother was the mastermind of the destruction of her family, and she planned all of this.

How was that possible? Why did she do that? Why?

He could not figure it out. Suddenly, he found his mother was more and more strange, as if she was no longer the kind person he knew.

After the morning tea, the people of the Rong family began to prepare to worship in the cemetery.

Essie walked towards the old lady and said, "Grandma, I... I'd better go home first." Even though the old lady had recognized her as her granddaughter-in-law, she would never become the wife of Zac. She was divorced and she had no right to take part in the ceremony.

"Essie." The old lady understood what she was worrying about, but she wouldn't let her go today. "You are not only the daughter-in-law of the Rong family, but also a respectful person of our family. You should go and worship our ancestors. What you represent is not only yourself."

Essie was dazed by her words. The old lady's words were so profound that she didn't understand at all.

When did she become a hero of the Rong family?

She had no contribution to the Rong family?
